Enhancing Perceived Value in the Language Classroom. From Apathy to Autonomy in Language Learning

Date: Sunday, January 28th, 2001 Time: 1:30 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: Paul Raymond Doyon (Asahi University) and Brad Deacon (Nanzan University)

The speakers using anecdotes from their own lives and classrooms will introduce the concept of "Perceived Value" and demonstrate techniques on how a teacher can shift students' perceptions, and in turn, create autonomy out of apathy in the language classroom. Moreover, the Kolb Experiential Learning Model--experience, reflection, conceptualization, and experimentation--will be introduced as a model for teacher development and problem solving in the classroom.
